Five persons have already been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol at the start of the Easter weekend celebrations.
The Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) intends to make good on its promise to ensure that the Easter weekend remains safe and enjoyable for all road users as we continue to remind motorists and pedestrians alike to conduct themselves safely when using the nation’s roadways.
The five motorists were arrested in the Tobago Division after testing over the legal limit for blood alcohol level.
